    摘要: A rotation transmission device includes an inner ring provided on an input shaft, an outer ring provided on an output shaft, rollers mounted between the inner periphery of the outer ring and the outer periphery of the inner ring, an electromagnet as a driving source for moving a roller retainer mounted at the end portion of the housing on the side of the input shaft, a first bearing mounted between the electromagnet and the input shaft, a second bearing mounted between the end portion of the housing on a side of the output shaft and the output shaft, and a third bearing mounted between the inner ring and the outer ring. The rotation transmission device further includes a fourth bearing configured to prevent inclination of the axes of the input shaft and the output shaft relative to each other.

    摘要: A spindle drive unit, in particular for an actuator having a planetary screw drive (PWG) for actuating a clutch of a motor vehicle by an actuating element is provided, where the drive unit has an e-motor with a rotor and a stator and where a spindle provided with a pitch is connected non-rotatingly to the rotor and is drivable by the rotor around an axis of rotation. The spindle is designed as a threaded rod and a rotor carrier that holds the rotor is screwed onto the threaded rod, and the rotor carrier is rotationally secured and axially fixed on the spindle by a lock nut.

    摘要: An actuation system of a transfer case includes a face cam, a motor, a gear reduction assembly, and an intermediate rotating member. The face cam includes a first member and a second member, and rotation of the first member relative to the second annular causes the first member or the second annular member to displace axially relative to the other member for selective operation of a torque transfer mechanism of the torque transfer device. The gear reduction assembly includes a first planetary gear set that increases torque from the motor by a first ratio, and a second planetary gear set that increases torque from the first planetary gear set by a second ratio and is coaxial with the first planetary gear set and the motor. The intermediate rotating member is rotated by the gear reduction assembly and rotates the first annular member for selective operation of the torque transfer mechanism.

    摘要: A compact electromechanical decoupler device is operatively connected between a manual control device of an aircraft and an electromechanical actuator that controls the flight modes of the aircraft. The electromechanical decoupler device is operable to decouple the operative connection between the manual control device and the electromechanical actuator with the absence of power supplied to the electromechanical decoupler device. The electromechanical decoupler device can recouple the operative connection between the manual control device and the electromechanical actuator on resupply of power to the electromechanical decoupler device and on manually achieving proper rotational alignment or indexing between the mechanical control device and the electromechanical actuator.

    摘要: The invention relates to a clutch assembly for a powertrain of a motor vehicle, comprising at least one clutch and at least one actuation device. The clutch can be brought into an open position and/or a closed position by means of the actuation device such that a first sub-region of the powertrain and a second sub-region of the powertrain are decoupled and/or coupled. The actuation device comprises an actuation element and a control element which is connected to the clutch. The control element is arranged in a guidable manner in a guide slot with respect to the actuation element, and the control element is held in the region of the guide slot by means of an energy storage element, which counteracts a movement of the control element out of a first stop position along the guide slot, in the closed position of the clutch. The invention also relates to a method for decoupling the first sub-region of the powertrain from the second sub-region of the powertrain by means of the clutch assembly.

    摘要: A meshing-type engagement device includes a first member, a second member, a pressing mechanism, and a reaction force mechanism. The first member is provided with a plurality of first dog teeth. The second member is provided with a plurality of second dog teeth. The pressing mechanism is configured to press the first member to the second member side. The reaction force mechanism is configured to generate a reaction force with respect to a pressing force pressing the first member for the first dog teeth and the second dog teeth to mesh with each other such that the amount of increase in the reaction force with respect to a movement of the first member is larger at a position further on the second member side than a predetermined position compared to the amount of increase to the predetermined position when the first member is pressed.
